Harry Reid, one of the worst politicians we have today had to apologize today for racist comments he made about Obama.

“Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) apologized today for referring to President Barack Obama as “light skinned” and “with no Negro dialect” in private conversations during the 2008 presidential campaign.

“I deeply regret using such a poor choice of words,” said Reid in a statement. “I sincerely apologize for offending any and all Americans, especially African Americans for my improper comments.”

The Senate Majority Leader was officially neutral in the primary fight between Obama and then Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (N.Y.). Reid’s remarks about Obama were revealed in “Game Change”, a book detailing the 2008 race penned by Time’s Mark Halperin and New York magazine’s John Heilemann.”

Since Reid is a democrat, the media has pretty much ignored this as usual. If this was a republican, they would be pressured to resign, but not for a democrat.

He needs to resign!
